Kevin Durant has been among the most talked-about players in the NBA over the past few years.
When he’s at his best, he is one of the best athletes in the league, and some say he’s among the best players the league has ever seen.
While his on-court play is spectacular for the most part, Durant hasn’t been the happiest with his teams throughout the years.
His discontent with the Phoenix Suns is evident, and both sides have been trying to mend the situation for several months.
Ideally, Durant would join a contender, a team that he feels he could win a ring with, and the Suns could get a haul of picks and players in a potential deal.
Who that trade partner might be remains to be seen, and to this point, several candidates have popped up.
One interesting team that he could land with is the Los Angeles Clippers, as John Gambadoro noted via NBA Central on X.
The Clippers are a dark horse to watch in the Kevin Durant sweepstakes, per @Gambo987

The Clippers showed some promise during the regular season and playoffs, but they fell short of their goal of making it to the NBA Finals.
A player like Durant could certainly help them get to the next level, adding a veteran player with plenty of experience.
It will be difficult for any new team to break through in the 2025-2026 season, with plenty of Western Conference teams having strong rosters.
Durant is certainly on a short list of players who could help take a team from good to great in a hurry, instantly making his next team one to watch moving forward.
